Friday Favourites: Spanish Norman Horses

I don't think it's any secret that I am drawn to the "war horse" archetype when it comes to horses - I mean... look at mine!



I have also always been a fan of the Baroque breeds, with Andalusians topping the list. You can see where this is going, right?

If money were no issue, I would have a barn full of these:

(You can see the full gallery here. Get a tissue ready for drool wiping!)

Seriously. If any of you loyal readers out there ever win the lottery, think of me. :)

    Hi Amanda

    I, too, love the Spanish Normans. I have one who is by my Andalusian stallion. As a large rider I wanted a bigger horse. I love them too!
    You can listen to a couple of interviews I did with Allan Hamid, the founder of the Spanish Norman registry, at www.TheWowFactorRadio.com And then go to the link to past shows.
    Thanks for your terrific blog!
    Warmly, Kris Garrett

    Here's my Spanish Norman filly, last year when she was just ten days old. Her mama is back this week to be bred to our senior Andalusian stallion, TemerarioVII
